(2018). From Colorism to Conjurings: Tracing the Dust in Beyoncé's Lemonade. Taboo: The Journal of Culture and Education, 16 (2). https://doi.org/10.31390/taboo.16.2.04 Taboo,Cienna Fall Davis 2017 7 From Colorism to Conjurings Tracing the Dust in Beyoncé’s Lemonade Cienna Davis Abstract Colorism creates relentless tension and pressure in the lives of Black women. Pop-star Beyoncé Gisele Knowles-Carter is an interesting case in the discussion of colorism because her career has expressed a rich intimacy to Southern Black cul- ture and female empowerment while also playing into tropes of the mulatta “fancy girl,” whose relative proximity to whiteness adheres social value within mainstream culture. Finding aesthetic and thematic parallels between Beyoncé’s recent project Lemonade (2016) and Julie Dash’s cult-classic film Daughters of the Dust (1991) I draw a critical connection between Yellow Mary Peazant and Beyoncé, the prodigal child and the licentious “post-racial,” pop-star to argue that while Lemonade may not present the same critique of exclusionary Black womanhood present within Daughters of the Dust, reactions to the Beyoncé’s visual album and the “Formation” music video inadvertently demonstrate the longevity of harmful colorist prejudices and the disparaging of Black female sexual and creative agency within the Black community.

The invention of motion pictures is intertwined with colonization, chattel slavery, and the emergence of blackness and whiteness as definitive concepts of modernity, and the development of cinema has played a significant role in the ongoing processes of both white supremacy and black emancipation. Simply put, film hasn’t merely reflected the politics of race; it has taken an active role in this politics, most often by policing the color line and perpetuating anti-black violence, but on rare occasions also providing a technology for black revolt. In this course, we will focus primarily on these latter instances in which black filmmakers attempt to wield cinema as weapon of emancipation. However, we will also study the dominant articulation of blackness and whiteness in “mainstream” cinema as well. The screenings, readings and assignments in this course are intended to introduce key critical theories of race, fundamental aspects of film studies, and the history of black filmmaking within the transatlantic diaspora.
